Question: forgive my being so new, but I don't know what the brown-ish vehicle (?) between the hydrofoil and Vamp is?
And yeah, the FLAGG does justify taking down the emp arrival...
Thanks | I could NEVER take down the emperor's arrival. Here's a picture I took today 10/23/08. The vehicle is the Mauler. Thank you for your post. I love checking out how everyone sets up their collections!

alot of us aren't children anymore and don't have the need or the urge to play with toys anymore.
I don't specifically by toys for hopes of glory in 20 years, I buy them to enjoy, and I enjoy them in the package much better.
The artwork, the look, something that stays new forever.

The artwork, the look, something that stays new forever. | I love the boxes too. The artwork rules! When I buy vintage items I always try to get the box too. Here's a picture of some of my boxes. I used to buy 2 of each Star Wars figure, now I'm only buying 1 and an extra of the ones I really want to open. However, when it comes to GI JOE I'm always buying 2 of each. They're just WAY too cool! Anyway, play with your figures too. My daughters love playing GI JOE...for now. Don't worry they have barbie, my little pony, cars, and Dora too. They watched the GI JOE movie last night too. Anyway, I've stopped buying 2 of each vehicles. I just open up every vehicles nowdays. Except for the exclusives, I always buy 2 of them. Please show more of your collections boxed or displayed! Don't forget to dust them though. I hate dusting too, but it's a good excuse to alter your display and make it look cooler! YO JOE!

The only one to me that has been worth opeing was the Snow Serpent, that is just a sweet figure, and very well made.
And I show off my collection with pride when they are carded and in starcases hanging around my computer room.
Not to mention the mess it looks like when they are all open, the clutter, the dust, the space! NO THANK YOU!
